Kasner : [barges in] Forensics wanted me to give you this report.

Kasner : [sneering] Must be your lucky day, huh, Cassy?

Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John : Where are you going with this, Kasner?
Kasner : Well, first you get Burkow canned, and now you get to spit on his grave.
Capt. Harry Lipschitz : Hey! Get the hell out of my squad room, Kasner!
